SmimeIncludeWholeChainOnSign Property
Gets or sets if Sign(MailMessage, Certificate) or SignAndEncrypt(MailMessage, Certificate, CertificateCollection) should include the whole certificate chain into the signature.

Namespace: MailBee.Security
Assembly: MailBee.NET (in MailBee.NET.dll) Version: 12.5.0 build 687 for .NET 4.5
Syntax
Copy
public bool IncludeWholeChainOnSign { get; set; }

Property Value

Type: Boolean
If true, MailBee will export the full certificate chain into the signature; otherwise, only the signer's certificate itself. The default value is true.
Remarks

With the whole chain, the signature size will be larger. However, if you set this value to false, it might not be possible for the recipient to check the signature in case if the CA of this certificate is not known for them.

Note Note
If you're getting "System.Security.Cryptography.CryptographicException: the buffer supplied to a function was too small" on signing, you will have to set this property to false. Some combinations of Windows (Windows Server 2012) and .NET Framework have a bug in an underlying implementation of security certificates which cannot be worked around unless you upgrade to a more recent Windows (e.g. 2016) or disable including the whole certificate chain.
